----------------------------------(1)

We also know that

-----------------------------(2)

We now have a system of equation from (1) and (2)

3t=5g

------------------------(3)

50g=29t+580------------------------(4)

Substituting 3 in 4, we get

t =589

So originally there was 580 students

In this 580 students 40% liked to dance

Then the number of students liked to dance =

=>

=>

=>

=> 232

We also know that with these people, 20 boys joined, all of whom like to dance.
